OIL-STOVE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 407,569, dated July 23, 1889. Application filed April 6, 1888. Serial No. 269,851. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that 1, CHARLES H. 130mm, of Milwaukee, in the county of Milwaukee, and in the State of WVisconsimhave invented certain new and useful Improvements in Oil- Stoves; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.

My invention relates to oil or lamp stoves, and will be fully described hereinafter.

In the drawings, Figure 1 is a central longitudinal section of my improved stove. Fig.

2 is adetached view of the wick-holder partly sprung open. Fig. 3 is an enlarged view of the same closed, but partly broken away to show the interior, and partly in section on the line 3 3 of Fig. 4. Fig. 4 is a horizontal section on line 4 4 of Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a detail section on line 5 5 of Fig. 3. Fig. 6 is a section on line 6 6 of Fig. 1, with the burner and reservoir removed.

The frame of my improved stove consists of corner pieces A, terminating in suitable legs connected by side pieces and by the sides and bottom of the heat-chamber B. The front part of latter has a flange a to receive the rim b'or base of the deflector-frame O. The deflector-plate D is suspended by a rod 0 from the top of the frame 0. The upper end of rod 0 is adj ustably secured to its support, so that the height of the deflector-plate may be easily regulated.

E is the draft-chamber, which is suspended from the flange a, and this chamber is provided with a door f in front to permit the removal of the burner or to give access to the flame.

The burnerF and reservoir Gare connected by a pipe g, and the side pieces 11 of the frame are formed each with a flange 71 to receive the reservoir, which is shoved in between the side pieces from the front, and a nestvlfor the bottom of the burner is hung between the front ends of the side pieces by stays i. The front of the nest i is open to admit of the withdrawal of the burner, but its rear is formed with a guard j to prevent the burner from going in too far.; The nest and guard are dropped to a plane lower than that of the flange h to permit the withdrawal of the reservoir.

My burner consists of the usual annular cup F, which is suspended from the reservoir by stays M, and the wick-tube, which fits in the cup F, consists of a perforated inner wall ister to receive a pin 5, the top of which is formed with a stop I, that \extends over the top of the lifting-rack u of the wall.

The outer wall of the cup-F is formed with an internal channel a, which embraces the joint 1) q and the rack u, as well as a pinion L,

andthe shaft'P of the pinion L has its bearing in a sleeve R, that is secured to the outer face of the channel 01.

Gas is prevented from flowing up through channel why the stop t. Between the walls m and N is confined an ordinary wick T, of less height than the walls of the tube, and above this is arranged a strip of asbestus or other non-combustible but porous material U, and these are clamped in place between the walls m and N. By turning the pinion the split wall or tube is worked vertically, thereby raising or lowering the wick, as the case may be.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent is- 1. In an oil-stove, the combination, with the frame, of flanges h, projecting inwardly from the sides of the frame, the nest i at the front of the stove supported by the said flanges, and a removable reservoir and burner arranged, respectively, on the flanges and nest. and secured to and communicating with each other, substantially as described.

2. The combination, in a burner, of a continuous inner tube and a split outer tube, and a sectional wick the upper section of which is of practically incombustible material.

3. In an oil-stove, a burner consisting of the cup F, the wick-tube having a perforated inner wall and a split outer wall, with means for uniting the severed edges, the wick bethe county of Milwaukee and State of Wis tween the walls, a rack u on the outer Wall cousin, in the presence of two witnesses.

of the wick-tube and a pinion meshin thereo with operated from the outside of the cup, CHARLES BOECK' 5 substantially as described. Witnesses:

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I S. S. STOUT,

have hereunto set my hand, at Milwaukee, in N. E. OLIPHANT.
